Day 23: 1.25 miles. Today I had to walk and not run because yesterday during the tempo runs I pulled a muscle in my right mid-back. There were many times today that I thought this is it, I am out of the challenge I'm not going to be able to do it. Then I thought of that beloved carrot at the end, the one where I can say "I DID IT!". So although I power walked and didn't run today (tomorrow back to at least a slow run) I put that mile in to be part of our elusive club. I enjoy hearing about all of our groups miles every day, so KEEP ON STREAKING and remember we're almost there.

Day #20: 1.34 miles in 13:41 at 4:00am this morning. Worked from 7:00am to 4:00pm, then off to soccer state cup final 2 hours away from work. We are the champions 4-1! My daughter played an excellent game as holding center mid with two assists and lots of fancy defense! I was proud.

The run today was hard. My pace was verrrry S L O W!!! 10:13 almost throughout. Uh. It was ugly and I am not impressed with today. Gotta get back into the grove. Looking forward to a longer run soon. Where is the rain? I have sooo much fun running in the rain.

Oh....that is early! Good job. Most people who are as busy as you would come up with all kinds of excuses as to why they couldn't run. I am completely impressed by your dedication. Keep up the excellent work, girl!

Thank you. I read this today at work and it really lifted my spirits. A word of encouragement goes a long way.

You are doing great! This is my first time running every day too. I am on day 21 because I started 2 days after everyone else and I am up to 56.23 miles! Keep going...this streaking thing is addicting!

Way to lace up those sneakers and go!!! I'll keep you in my prayers. Hope it gets better fast!

Day 23: a slow 1.04 miles. I have a scratch on my cornea that flares up every couple of months and I woke up to my eye sore and watery. I've been feeling pretty grumpy all day, but the run really did loosen my up a bit.

Day 23. 1 mile late on the treadmill, then another .25 just for the fun of it after .5 walk left me wanting more. Then another .75 walk. Planning to run 2.4 tomorrow. 16 days to go and less than 25 mile to go to reach a personal goal I set. Happy streaking!

I splashed through the puddles, turned my face up to receive the cool rain drops, and breathed in the fresh, cool air.

It helped me get back into the groove, a positive frame of mind, running for body and soul!

I know we're going to make it to the end...

Tomorrow is graduation so it's another 4:00AM run for me.

I'll be at work from 7:00AM til way past midnight and back to work at 7:00AM on Thursday.

I will need some serious mojo and will power over the next two days.

Looking forward to reading everyone's mileage and times.

Great running! If I get a 5k under 30 minutes again, I'll get up at 4 a.m. to run too! Just saw a neighbor that I've never actually met walking around tonight. He saw me from a distance and nodded at me. I nodded back at the older, long, lanky fellow and noticed the back of his shirt as he was walking away: Marathon finisher in all 50 states plus DC! That's some serious mojo.

I set the alarm to get up early for my run, because I knew that'd be the only time available. But, I hit snooze multiple times, then messed around with my emails, so I only had time for my short 1.26 mile loop. BUT, I was rewarded by the sight of a deer nursing two newly born fawns! So beautiful! I wanted to stop and take a picture, but I figured 1) don't disturb them and 2) I don't think I can outrun a ticked off mama!

And the streak continues...!!! (And I'm setting my alarm AGAIN with the goal of NOT hitting snooze!)

This is my first streak, too. Every day but today has been good. I know tomorrow will be better than today! I like all of the positive comments you have been giving to people (myself included.) Thank you!Originally Posted by Jannette927:
